Synopsis

"An important indicator of developing theoretical work in all aspects of communication research." --Communication Booknotes "The dozen chapters are well-developed essays. . . . Communication Yearbook 15 provides a fair sampling of the variety of research approaches and scholarly interests of contemporary students of communication. . . . The present volume sheds light on how well communication functions in a democracy." Contemporary Sociology The tradition of the Communication Yearbook series continues--fully developed chapters with an ongoing dialogue format among leading scholars through carefully selected commentaries. Providing the very latest and best research in communication studies, Communication Yearbook 15 focuses on cultural studies and the social production of meaning in relation to mass media messages. Included are significant issues in persuasion, language and dominance, and interpersonal communication. Part I covers mass entertainment, audience mediation, and politics. Chapters detail political aspects of mass entertainment; review new approaches to investigating media messages; examine how everyday viewers think through and interpret entertainment messages; and discuss how Soviet films are produced and interpreted in a changing social and politically charged culture. Mass media messages and influences are investigated as chapters in Part II review the ways the television image has been conceptualized; the effects of corrective advertising; how news media contribute to stereotyping issue-specific conflicts; and the proactive side of media influence--successful public health campaigns. Part III considers interaction in social contexts by exploring the relationship among gender, dominance, and language usage; the effects of culture on couples' negotiating their personal and social identities; and the political aspects of the social construction of personal experience represented collectively as "common sense." Part IV completes the volume, providing an extensive review of the literature of intrapersonal communication, outlining conceptual problems inherent with such a notion. A valuable research and reference tool, Communication Yearbook 15 belongs in the libraries of students and scholars in communication studies.
